Abram's Delight: Oldest House in Winchester Traces 18th Century Elm
The Abram Hollingsworth tract Abram's Delight near Winchester is traced from 1730s settlement through 19th century ownership. The stone house built by Isaac Hollingsworth in 1754, additions by Jonah and later expansions by David Hollingsworth, mark the estate as a landmark and the oldest house still standing within the city limits.
